Definition
English
:
A
family
of predominantly
nuclear proteins
that regulate gene transcription and protein degradation. The expansion of CAG
trinucleotide repeats
in genes that encode
Ataxins
is associated with
SPINOCEREBELLAR ATAXIAS
(SCA). In SCA
patients
, the number of CAG repeats correlates with the severity of
disease
and inversely correlates with the age of
disease
onset.
